Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 4
Beginner - Intermediate Level
If you are searching for a dedicated and experienced reading tutor who uses a personalized, multi-sensory approach to address diverse learning needs, look no further! 

Lessons are added on a weekly basis when the assignments have been completed, after an initial assessment in Week 1.

Depending on the need, your learner's personalized reading lessons will have a some combination of these elements of reading instruction:

• Phonemic Awareness
• Phonics 
• Spelling
• Fluency Practice
• Vocabulary 
• Reading Comprehension
• Progress Monitoring

Learners who are reading below grade level often require intensive reading support. I offer 1 reading lesson per week that is targeted to your learners needs. If your learner needs a more intensive reading intervention, consider signing up for my small group or 1:1 classes for additional live intervention.

I provide specialized reading tutoring, focusing on students with varying needs, including:

• dyslexia 
• those who are reading below their grade level. 


My approach is:

• a multi-sensory approach to reading 
• rooted in the principles of the science of reading 
• based on the Orton-Gillingham method which emphasizes explicit and systematic instruction

I will begin with an assessment of your learner's reading strengths and challenges. Based on this assessment, I'll develop a customized reading plan tailored to your learner's specific needs. 

Ongoing assessment and progress monitoring are fundamental aspects of my approach to ensure each student's steady progress. I continuously evaluate the effectiveness of my lessons, make necessary adjustments, and provide detailed progress reports.

As a special education teacher, I am committed is to helping students with diverse learning needs overcome reading challenges and build the confidence they need to excel in reading and in life. 

If you're interested in enrolling your learner in personalized reading tutoring, this is the class for you!
